There was another way to play, which was to play wretchedly and forcefully.
Under the premise that they had a small advantage in all three lanes and could stabilize themselves under the tower and not be overtaken, their own team would choose a strong jungler to suppress the development of the opponent's jungler and drive the rhythm of the early stages. When the opponent reached level six and was ready to capture everyone, they would immediately go to the tower and play wretchedly, so that the opponent would not be able to find a good opportunity to capture them. Even if they caught them, they would not be able to further expand their advantage.
On the other hand, their own mid-laner would choose heroes that could quickly push the line and dismantle the tower. As long as the opponent's mid-laner flew away, their own mid-laner would immediately start pushing the line and tower. When the opponent's mid-laner went home to support twice, their own mid-laner would have already disappeared.
The middle tower had a very important strategic position in controlling the map. As long as the middle tower fell, a large area of the jungle would fall. The radius of activity of the global mid-laner would also be greatly reduced. At that time, the party who forcefully dismantled the tower would quickly change lines and continue to push the tower. At the same time, they would forcefully invade the jungle to put pressure on them, causing a snowball to continuously roll.
FV Team had obviously used this playstyle, and their lineup was very perfect!
They snatched away the three top-laners from the other party, preventing them from obtaining the father-level hero that was most likely to end the competition in the later stages. They chose the bottom lane archer with an advantage in the early stages and the Ancient Lava Tree with a certain degree of frankness to ensure the bottom lane's advantage. Once they were caught, the opponent would not be able to do much as long as they cowered under the tower.
On the other hand, the jungler Death Sickle might not be the strongest jungler, but the other party chose a jungler that was weaker than it in the early stages for the team battle in the middle and late stages. This ensured that the rhythm in the early stages would be in FV's hands.
The data and strength of all heroes had been repeatedly analyzed by the data analysis team and tested by professional players. Some details had also been considered repeatedly.
FV Team's coaches had already understood their intentions when FRY Team chose to snatch the Wings of the Blade. That was why they could perfectly target them in the BP segment!
IOI players who did not watch GPL felt that FV Team's lineup was ridiculous. However, almost all GPL players realized the playstyle that FV Team was about to adopt. Their expectations for this competition were completely full!
…
Unknowingly, the competition had been going on for more than seven minutes.
FRY Team was still following the standard strategy of executing the global style. They had to protect their eyes and develop steadily in the early stages. They would then start looking for opportunities after the mid-laner could fly.
On the other hand, FV Team was not in a hurry. They only pretended to invade once or twice, snatched one or two wild monsters, and then grabbed a bottom lane along the way. They returned without success.
Both sides were playing rather cautiously. There were some small scuffles in the first few minutes, but no one was killed.
The three official commentators were having a hard time as well. They could only repeatedly explain how the players were replenishing their troops, stealing wild monsters, and draining their health.
Finally, as the two heroes in the middle lane reached level six, the commentators were instantly excited!
The Wings of the Blade in FRY Team's middle lane began to move down after clearing a wave of soldiers. At that moment, FV Team's bottom lane had just pressed down slightly. It looked like a good opportunity!
FRY team's Blade Wings spread its wings. The feathers on its wings were sharp blades. It suddenly flapped its wings and flew high, pouncing towards the bottom path!
However, the two members of FV Team's bottom lane immediately retreated the moment the Wings of the Blade took off. The Ancient Lava Tree used a control skill to freeze the opponent's archer so that he could not keep up with the output. Then, the two of them had already retreated to the tower when the Wings of the Blade rushed to the bottom lane.
FRY Team fought the opposite side unwillingly. However, they did not pose a threat because the archer could not keep up and their output was seriously insufficient.
FRY Team obviously did not intend to give up. When the Wings of the Blade reached level six, the jungler was already rushing down. Now that he had arrived, it was obvious that he wanted to circle around and outflank them. They would directly kill four people and two people under the tower.
However, the Nakano brothers had just walked into the bushes when they were attacked by the Sickle of Death, who was crouching there in advance.
They were just about to retaliate when FV Team's Sickle of Death had already moved twice and returned to their own tower.
The three of them maintained a perfect formation under the tower and steadily kept their tower blades.
FRY Team's archer pointed at the tower unwillingly. There was nothing he could do about these three people.
FV Team's Ancient Lava Tree had even deliberately eaten a few skills under the tower, lowering its health line by a few points, creating an illusion for FRY Team that they seemed to be able to cross the tower and kill one.
However, FRY hesitated again and again before holding back.
One archer in the early stages and two burly men with control. Four against three under the tower was still a very suicidal behavior. This was the finals. If they did not handle it well, it would be a series of explosions. The entire game might be lost.
FRY Team had no choice but to give up. They conveniently snatched a few wild monsters from FV Team to vent their anger and then returned home.
FRY Team's Wings of the Blade could only walk back to the middle lane slowly. In the end, he only saw the back view of the explosive craftsman in the opposite middle lane leaving.
He took a closer look. Where's the health bar of my defense tower?
The health bar of the defense tower was still full before he left. Why did it drop by a third?
The members of FRY Team were all dizzy. This wave of support had only eaten a few wild monsters and destroyed some of FV's skills. However, it had caused them to lose a wave and a half of their minions and a third of the defense tower's health!
The opponent's mid-laner had no intention of providing support when he saw that the Wings of the Blade had left. He directly used all his skills on the minions and defense tower until his blue bar was empty and the Wings of the Blade had returned. Only then did he leave.
The defense tower in the middle lane had only lost a third of its health, but the members of FRY Team already felt that something was wrong …
…
Pei Qian had just finished breakfast on the other side.
He was not allowed to look at his cell phone while eating, so he could only go back to watch the competition after eating.
Both sides were still in a stalemate before eating. The commentator had been emphasizing that FRY Team would start attacking after reaching level six. If FV Team did not deal with it well, they might be caught.
Pei Qian was quite happy to hear that and went to eat breakfast with anticipation.
In the end, Pei Qian returned to the live-stream after breakfast. He realized that the game had only started for less than fifteen minutes, but the two sides' finances had inexplicably widened by three thousand yuan!
The headcount of both sides was 1: 0. FRY had taken one more head, but FV Team had already uprooted the three outer towers on the opposite side.
FV Team relied on the economic advantage of dismantling the tower in the early stages. A group of strong men were already huddling towards FRY Team's jungle. They had the advantage of archers in the early stages, the Sickle of Death with displacement and control, the Ancient Lava Tree with control, and the visual advantage caused by the defense tower and economic lead. FRY did not have a good solution at all. They could only watch as their jungle fell.
The Wings of the Blade in FRY's mid-laner could fly, but where?
The other party had the economic advantage. The team in the early stages was more ferocious than the other, and their vision was completely suppressed. Even if the Wings of the Blade flew over, his teammates would not be able to keep up. Wouldn't that be equivalent to giving their lives away?
On the other hand, FV Team's mid-laner was leisurely eating soldiers to develop. There were no heads in their eyes at all, only the defense tower. They would immediately run over and dismantle the tower crazily whenever they saw a gap in FRY Team's defense line.
If they were not careful, FRY's middle lane's second tower would almost be destroyed!
FRY was leading 1: 0 in terms of headcount, but the five members of FV Team swaggered into FRY's jungle to shop and invade. FV Team could start the team at any time, but they could not find an opportunity. They could only watch helplessly.
The bullet screen comments were already exploding.
"What is FRY doing? Why are they so cowardly? All the resources in the jungle were given for nothing? Go up and fight them, what's there to be afraid of! "
"I'm going to vomit from watching this. Did FRY buy it? This is the finals. Why are they fighting so ugly!"
"Unbelievable. I thought that this finals would be Mars colliding with Earth. What the hell are these two sides fighting? It's even uglier than the semifinals! Are they preparing to develop for 40 minutes and then decide the outcome in one wave? Trash, too trash! This viewing value can't be compared to GPL! "
"Keyboard warriors, stop scolding. It's not that FRY doesn't want to start a team, but they're giving it away no matter who they start a team now! The outer tower has been completely destroyed, and the jungle is all in FV's vision. Can you win if you go up and fight with them like this? "
"FV's mid-laner has been dismantling the tower and clearing the line. The people have all developed. The damage can't be ignored now! The control and output of both sides are not on the same level. How are they going to fight? "
"FV Team's' wretched demolition style 'is really too perfect. It's simply invulnerable! This wave, this wave is tactical suppression, IQ suppression! "
In the first round of the global finals, both sides had fought for 15 minutes and had already played out an economic difference of more than 3,000 yuan. In the end, the headcount remained at 1: 0. FRY had only obtained that one head by forcefully grabbing the Ancient Lava Tree on the other side at the cost of the road tower in a fluster and exasperation.
All the economic difference came from the tower, the last hit, and the wild monsters.
There was an ugliness in this scene!
If there were frequent team battles between both sides and FRY Team lost, it could be said that FRY Team's operations were not good and their skills were not as good as others.
However, FV Team did not even take a single head now. They relied on shopping on the map to pull down the tower and eat resources, forcefully gaining a huge advantage. The difference in tactics and IQ between both sides was immediately reflected!
…
At the competition venue, Chrétien and Zhao Xuming's expressions were extremely ugly.
Chrétien was the most upset about the current situation.
FV Team had played FRY in circles without taking a single head. The difference in tactics and IQ between both sides was obvious. It was not even easy to find an excuse.
What's more, FV Team had used GOG's tactics to crack FRY's confident global flow. Didn't that mean that GPL's tactics were ahead of IOI's global finals?
Did that mean that GOG's game design concept was higher than IOI's?
If the difference in strength between the two teams was in terms of operations, Chrétien could still push the blame to FRY Team. However, the current situation could only mean that Finger Games' Balancer and FRY Team's coach team were not enough to fight Tengda's tactical team!
Chrétien was IOI's designer himself. He knew very well that FRY Team's first round was probably over when he saw the current situation.
But there was nothing he could do. There was nothing he could do except watch from below the stage.
He could only hope that they could adjust their mentality as soon as possible, change their tactical system, and win back!
Chrétien sighed silently. At that moment, he was even more nervous than the FRY team members on stage.
That was because the final outcome of this competition might very well determine whether he could retain his position as the person-in-charge of IOI's China region!
Zhao Xuming, on the other hand, sighed silently in his heart. "Boss Pei, is this your true trump card? How high is your understanding of the game's tactics to make a weak team like FV undergo such a huge change in such a short period of time? "
